The Intec, an international Trade Fair for machine tools, production- and automation technology, took place from 05.-08. February in Leipzig. This year Oemeta was present at two locations. In hall 5 of the Leipzig Trade Fair with our main stand and simultaneous at the opened technology center of the MAZAK company, who offered, besides catering and a VIP shuttle service, a forum for it’s partner exhibitors.

In addition to new machining oils Oemeta presented a new product in the field of water miscible coolants. According to the motto BOHRMILCH 4.0 we presented the product NOVAMET 1000 S as an allrounder for all processes, all materials and every water. The fully dispersive product with a high oil content provides all virtues of the classic “Bohrmilch” but is based on modern raw materials and therefore adapted to the requirements of todays machining technology. That means high pressures, a wide process window for multitasking use and a...

Oemeta UK Ltd is pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at the Southern Manufacturing & Electronics Exhibition which is taking place at the Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre on the 5th – 7th February 2019.

For several years Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH has decided not to send Christmas presents to its customers, instead it supports locally-based non-profit organizations.

This year the donation of 2.500€ goes to the Foundation Museum Langes Tannen in Uetersen. The museum largely depends on donations because the public funds are not enough to ensure the exhibitions and the preservation of the museum.

The museum was founded when Werner Lange bequeathed his nearly 250 years old property “Neue Mühle” to the city of Uetersen in 1979, to maintain it and to open it to the public. The museum complex consists of a manor, a mill-café, the museums barn and a beautiful park. The collection of the manor includes furniture, pictures and everyday items from the 18th to the 20th century. Furthermore, one can see photos and documents of the family- and mill history of the family Lange. In the barn the museum presents 4-5 changing exhibitions each year,...

Last year Oemeta donated it’s Christmas donation to the Freiwilligen Forum Uetersen, which supports the foreign schoolchildren of the DAZ classes (DAZ= German as a second language), of two schools in Uetersen.

The donated money was used to organize a school trip to Ratzeburg to the “3 Muskel Tour" (handcar, 6teambike, dragonboat). The children expressed their thanks with a selfmade poster. Another DAZ class used the donation to organize a cooking of Syrian food, an excursion to the climbing park and one to the city of Hamburg. Furthermore, the money was used to buy two tablets with a special learning program.

Oemeta is now a member of the Machining Innovations Network (MIN). The association merges the competencies and the know-how of the members and serves as an integrative platform. The aim is to exchange information, establish business contacts, access new markets and work on developing new and innovative products.https://www.machining-network.com

Every year at the beginning of the Advent time, the school kids of Birkenallee school in Uetersen visit the Oemeta Headquarter to decorate the big Christmas tree in the foyer with selfmade Christmas deorations and ornaments. Santa Claus also came by with some sweet surprises for the children.

At this year’s Cyclassics on 19th of August in Hamburg, 14 Oemetaner’s took part in the race. With nearly 18,000 participants and 650,000 spectators the Cyclassics is the biggest cycling race in Europe and this sunday it was the 23rd time the race took place in Hamburg. On three different distances (60 km, 100 km, 160 km) everybody can show their skills.

All Oemeta cyclists came safe and successful across the finish line and could present, amongst very good results, new jerseys. 7 Oemetaner’s started at the 60 km distance, with the best result of 1:28 h and 7 even at the 100 km distance with the best result of 2:56 h.

We are happy with our team about this successful day and awaiting the next race with excitement.

From May 15.-17. Oemeta organized its Partnermeeting. International partners from different companies and industries came to visit. The partners came from 13 different countries and regions for example from Scandinavia, Asia, Italy, France, Spain, the Netherlands and Switzerland.

The employees and the partners gave interesting lectures. Some of the topics were Product Innovations, Aerospace, Minimum Quantity Lubrication, International Marketing, The Analytical Laboratory and the Production of Oemeta.

Besides the meeting, Oemeta also organized an evening event: The guests were invited for a sailing trip through the Hamburg Harbour and the Elbe. The theme was: “Cool Cruise”!

Overall, the Partnermeeting was a great success and Oemeta got a very positive feedback from the partners.

On 4 May 2018 the third production site of Oemeta was inaugurated in Salt Lake City/ Utah. The second production site in China already opened in 2015 and this year the production will also start in the USA. Therefore, Oemeta is better prepared to satisfy the requirements of the market. Arrangements were made since 2016 and after 8 months of building, everything is completed now.

The third production site is a milestone in the history of Oemeta and another sign for the steady growth and the internationality of the company.

Oemeta is taking part in a workshop of TAE - Technische Akademie Esslingen on Thursday 03/01/2018.

The most important topics of the workshop are the correlation of the material characteristics and the corresponding coolant characteristics. The requirements of the coolants set through the machining process are defined. Therefore, the different materials are used as important parameters for the definition of the required coolants.

Oemeta’s supply partners in the South East, Turner Tools recorded another growth year in 2017 with turnover exceeding £3M for the first time in their history. Oemeta have partnered Turner Tools since 2011 taking a joint approach to customer satisfaction and retention, ensuring new products and services are correctly aligned with customer requirements, putting the customer first and ensuring they are getting the most out of their coolant provider.

Sales Director Jason Pither for Turner Tools added “we always select Oemeta Coolants because their products have outstanding quality and they are a highly professional company to deal with. Oemeta will never try and sell you a product for your application without a technical visit to the customer, their technicians look at all the variables including machine, application, coolant pressure and water quality before they entertain recommending any one of their large range of products”.

Oemeta presents at GrindTec as a grinding expert – with a long history

(Augsburg) Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH will put its comprehensive grinding expertise on display at GrindTec. The manufacturer of coolants and lubricants is presenting products – specially tailored to grinding processes – which exhibit optimized flushing and wetting behaviour, minimise grinding burn, provide higher dynamism as well as remove micro debris. In addition, Oemeta will draw on its history to dispel a common preconception.

At this year’s exhibition, the manufacturer of high-performance cutting and grinding oils as well as high-efficiency cooling lubricants will once again present innovative products for the grinding process that produce little foam or vapour. Among them are GTL oils, the oil-free concentrates FRIGOMET BF 600 and FRIGOMET DP 455 V, as well as NOVAMET 900 B, an emulsion used in grinding processes.

For several years Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH has decided not to send Christmas presents to its customers, instead it supports locally-based non-profit organisations.

This year the donation of 2500 € goes to the Freiwilligen Forum Uetersen. The support of the refugees, who come to Uetersen and stay, is one important task.

Nearly 30 members of the Freiwilligen Forum Uetersen work at two schools to support foreign students with the so called DAZ Programm (which means German as a second language). For helping effectively in this area, it is recommended and appropriate to do excursions with the students from time to time. Furthermore, the volunteer workers help teaching German and support the children to visit the regular classes.

Oemeta already donated to the Freiwilligen Forum Uetersen in 2014. You will find more information about the project here:

Oemeta’s quality management and environmental management has been certified through DEKRA again this year, with the latest certificate.

The quality management norm ISO 9001:2015 is the most important quality management (QM) norm nationally and internationally and builds the base for the continuous process of improvement of the internal quality management system (QMS). Important factors are the fulfilment of the customer demands, as well as a high product and service quality.

With the environmental norm ISO 14001:2015 Oemeta admits to the principal of sustainability and to environmentally friendly business activity. The environmental management with ISO 14001:2015 includes the efficient use of energy and raw materials, the minimization of disposal and risk prevention.

Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH is presenting at EMO for the first time, where the metalworking fluid manufacturer will be showcasing its latest product, ADDITIV CX. As part of the HYCUT two-component metalworking fluid, the new additive contributes to a state-of-the-art high-performance emulsion suitable for all types of metalworking operations.

The cooling lubricant manufacturer Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH offers cleaning services for machines and cooling lubricant systems. The professional approach to cleaning invariably extends the service lives of tools and cooling lubricants. The service is in particular demand during the summer, when interruptions to operation may already be planned, and also to relieve employees of this necessary yet unpopular procedure. On top of this, Oemeta also offers a fluid management service developed in-house and tailored to the customer’s requirements.

For the fourth consecutive time Oemeta has achieved the ‘Sicher mit System’ (Systematic Safety) certificate.

In 2007 Oemeta was the first chemical company in Schleswig-Holstein to achieve the ‘Sicher mit System’ (Systematic Safety) certificate, from BG Rohstoffe und Chemische Industrie (Chemical Employer's Liability Insurance Association). Oemeta and its occupational safety management has now been successfully re-certified.

For the ‘Sicher mit System’ quality award, companies voluntarily subject their Health & Safety systems to be examined and evaluated by a neutral body.

Companies are then able to optimise all aspects of their work safety, substantially reducing the risk of accidents and operational malfunctions.

At Intec in Leipzig, Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH is showcasing cooling lubricants that meet the most state-of-the-art requirements while also taking occupational safety into account. Along with ultramodern gas-to-liquid oils (GTL), the manufacturer is set to present many water-miscible universal products that are free of formaldehydes and other biocides. With these proprietary developments, Oemeta is reacting to numerous guidelines that govern occupational safety. Visitors to the company’s stand will experience first-hand how Oemeta’s innovative products can also increase production efficiency.

For several years Oemeta Chemische Werke GmbH has decided not to send Christmas presents to its customers, instead it supports locally-based non-profit organisations.

This year the donation goes to the Uetersener Tafel e.V. Their mission is to reduce the contrast between food surplus and neediness.

Donated food will be given to the most vulnerable. Supermarkets, bakeries, weekly markets, restaurants and others support with donations of food. Volunteers from Uetersener Tafel make sure the donations get to where they are needed most.

On May 20th Hermes China organized a customer day "Grinding Tubes & Rods" in Shanghai.

The Crown Plaza Hotel, Shanghai was the location for presentations given the Hermes experts with regards to all aspects of centreless grinding. To complete the program, additional presentations were given by guest speakers from Loeser ( market leaders of centrelsss belt grinding machines), Oemeta (Coolant manufacturer) and Hilzinger-Thum (Contact wheel manufacturer) The main focus of the presentations were applications for Hermes products Hermesit, Cork and the newly developed Mercurit range of abrasive products.

By employing practical training, the participants were able to witness the products in use. A Loeser centreless machine was used to grind a variation of cylindrical product, which were then measured for surface roughness and presented on a special display board.

On 19th May Oemeta attends the career networking fair »contacts« in Kiel. With 5000 visitors the exhibition was very successful.

The Oemeta team was very busy giving information to many visitors and presents Oemeta as longstanding employer in medium-sized business. Even the president Professor Dr. Lutz Kipp from the Christian Albrechts University in Kiel (CAU) visited our booth!

Oemeta informs: For all users of cutting and grinding oils, the 1st June 2015 is a key date. From that date, full implementation of the guidelines for the labelling of mixtures containing mineral oil will become obligatory.
